A. Need for and Use of the Information
Collection
Section 10(g)(1) of the Federal Home
Loan Bank Act (Bank Act) requires
FHFA to promulgate regulations
establishing standards of community
investment or service that Federal Home
Loan Bank (Bank) member institutions
must meet in order to maintain access
to long-term advances. Section 10(g)(2)
of the Bank Act requires that, in
establishing these community support
requirements for Bank members, FHFA
take into account factors such as the
Bank member’s performance under the
Community Reinvestment Act of 1977
(CRA) and record of lending to first-time
homebuyers.
Part 1290 of FHFA’s regulations
implements the statutory requirements
by providing uniform community
support standards that all Bank
members must meet, as well as review
criteria that FHFA staff must apply to
determine compliance with section
10(g) of the Bank Act. Section 1290.2 of
the regulations requires that each Bank
member submit to FHFA biennially a
completed Community Support
Statement (Form 60), which contains
several short questions the answers to
which are used by FHFA to assess the
responding member’s compliance with
the CRA and first time homebuyer
performance standards. In section I of
the form, a member that is subject to the
CRA must record its current CRA rating
and the date of its most recent CRA
evaluation. Section II of the form
addresses a member’s efforts to assist
first time homebuyers—a member may
either record the amount of loans made
to first time homebuyers (in dollars and
as a percentage of total mortgage loans)
in the previous year, indicate the types
of programs it has undertaken to assist
first time home buyers (by checking
selections from a list) or do both. If a
member has received a CRA rating of
‘‘outstanding,’’ it need not complete
section II of the form. A copy of Form
60 is available at https://www.fhfa.gov/
webfiles/2924/FHFAForm060.pdf.
Section 1290.5 describes the
circumstances under which FHFA will
restrict a member’s access to long-term
Bank advances for failure to meet the
community support requirements. It
also permits Bank members whose
access to long-term advances has been
restricted to apply directly to FHFA to
remove the restriction under certain
circumstances.
The information collection contained
in Form 60 and part 1290 are necessary
to enable and are used by FHFA to
determine whether Bank members
satisfy the statutory and regulatory
